Recently attended the EMC2 master…
Recently attended the EMC2 master course and it was a great and really insightful 2 day course.
Simon the teacher explained and demonstrated everything we were learning perfectly.
Plenty of of techniques and skills were picked up over the 2 day course, excellent value for money and would definitely recommend to anyone.

Massively exceeded all expectations
Attended the EMC this weekend at the Bad Moon Cafe.
I think it’s safe to say I learned more from James in this weekend than I have from years of online videos etc. and this is after 30 odd years in the hobby. The content is really well paced and I left with some great looking pieces and lots of ideas (and am no longer scared of my airbrush).
Already raved about it to friends who have both booked on a future course.
Thanks again for a great weekend, I can highly recommend :)

Expert tuition - loads of useful tips
James was incredibly informative during the 121 tuition and clearly knew his stuff. He left me with lots of practical tips and actionable next steps so that I could progress with my painting skills. Looking forward to the 2 day workshop later in the year and seeing how my painting progresses over the next few months.

EMC 1 painting course
I recently attended the EMC 1 painting course with Siege Studios and had a fantastic experience. The course really made me think differently about how I approach painting techniques and how to apply them more effectively to my models.
Before the course I had never used an airbrush, but with the help and guidance provided over the weekend I now feel confident using it for base coating and incorporating it into my workflow.
The mix of practical demonstrations and hands-on guidance made it much easier to understand the techniques and apply them straight away.
James is a great instructor, very attentive and always making sure everyone in the class had time for feedback and guidance. He explains both the theory and the techniques in a way that’s clear, easy to understand, and easy to put into practice.
The atmosphere was relaxed and supportive, and you can tell a lot of thought has gone into how the course is structured. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to improve their miniature painting skills, no matter their current level.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We’re really glad you found the course valuable and that it’s helped shift how you approach your painting. It’s great to hear you’re feeling confident with the airbrush already.

A Great Experience
Siege Studios has been recommended by many of the biggest names in the Tabletop community, and I can certainly understand why. I submitted an order for a custom model with their team, and I could not be happier with what they came back to me with. The quality of their work is truly phenomenal. Their team also made sure to communicate with me every step of the way to ensure they delivered a product that would take center stage both on the display shelf and on the gaming table. This is a brand that is truly worthy of its reputation.

The artwork is of very high quality, and the artist updated the images at every step of the creation process to ensure I was aware of the progress. The artist did their best to fulfill my vision.

A professional operation
This is the second time I've used Siege Studio's gold painting tier. They run a professional operation, with the estimated timeline accurate, and the painting as requested. There's aldo plenty of feedback during the painting itself. A job well done, and highly recommended! (1749)

Custom Sang
Where to begin? There was a ton that set the custom commission process at Siege Studio apart. Frequent WIP photo updates. Ample time to discuss via video meetings the commission itself. Friendly and responsive Team. Everyone really made this easy and smooth transaction. I’m very happy with the result! Commission #1811

Si was a fantastic tutor
Si was a fantastic tutor. I learned more in 2 days than in nearly 20 years of painting war dollies.
Genuinely a great experience. The set up at Element Games, with our own private room, was very good. The lights provided were amazing!
I will be back for another course soon.

Essentials Master Class 1
I had a fantastic time at EMC1 held at Element Games. It was a great setup, and a really chilled atmosphere. There was lots to cover, but it never felt rushed and the weekend flew by.
Simon was a brilliant teacher, his demos and guidance were easy to follow and he made sure to check everyone's progress at each stage. He was easy to approach, had loads of tips and anecdotes, answered every question and made everyone feel they could achieve all the lessons (even the eyes!).
I'm really looking forward to doing EMC2 later in the year.
